## Why

In the AI chat, tool steps were displayed using raw tool identifiers
(`find_many_companies`, `create_one_task`, `send_email`...) and labels
were partially reconstructed/humanized on the frontend. This was hard to
localize and inconsistent across tool categories.

This PR makes the **backend the single source of truth for
human-readable, localized tool labels**, exposes them through
`getToolIndex`, and reduces the frontend to a thin resolver that picks
the right label for the current status (in-progress / completed).

## What changed

### Backend

- `ToolIndexEntry` (and the `getToolIndex` GraphQL DTO) now carry
`label`, `inProgressLabel?`, `completedLabel?`.
- New `getCrudToolLabels(operation, objectLabel, i18nService, locale)`
builds CRUD labels from a verb table (Search / Find / Group / Create /
Update / Upsert / Delete × imperative / in-progress / completed) + the
(translated, lowercased) object label.
- New `translate-tool-label.util.ts` translates a source label via
`I18nService` (`generateMessageId` → fallback to source when no
translation exists).
- Action tools: labels extracted to the `ACTION_TOOL_LABELS` constant
(`msg` + `i18nLabel`) and translated in
`ActionToolProvider.buildDescriptor`.
- Logic-function tools use the function name as label;
`toolSetToDescriptors` (workflow / view / metadata / dashboard) accepts
an optional `labels` map and falls back to a humanized tool name.
- Labels are localized server-side using the request locale
(`@RequestLocale` → `buildToolIndex` → `context.locale`, threaded
through `ToolContext` / `ToolProviderContext`).
- `code_interpreter` schema now asks the model for `loadingMessage`
(present tense) and `completedMessage` (past tense), so its status text
is model-generated.
- Removed the old generic `loadingMessage` injection mechanism
(`wrap-tool-for-execution.util.ts` deleted; `wrapJsonSchemaForExecution`
/ `stripLoadingMessage` no longer wrap every tool).

### Frontend

- New `useToolLabelMap()` hook builds a `Map<name, { label,
inProgressLabel, completedLabel }>` from `getToolIndex`.
- `getToolDisplayMessage` → `resolveToolDisplayMessage({ input,
toolName, isFinished, labelMap, output })`: a small resolver registry
keyed by tool name (`execute_tool`, `web_search`, `learn_tools`,
`load_skills`, `code_interpreter`, default).
- Default resolver prefers backend `completedLabel` / `inProgressLabel`,
falling back to `Ran X` / `Running X`.
- `learn_tools` / `load_skills` resolve their inner tool/skill names to
labels (label map → tool output labels via `getToolOutputLabelEntries` →
raw name).
- `code_interpreter` step is now expandable to show the code even while
running.

## Localization notes

- Standard object labels and action/CRUD verbs are translated
server-side via `I18nService` using the requester's locale.
- Custom object labels are not translated unless a workspace custom
translation exists (matched by `generateMessageId`); otherwise the
source label is used as-is.

## Tests

- **FE:** `resolveToolDisplayMessage` / `getToolOutputLabelEntries`
(status selection, inner-name resolution, `code_interpreter` model
labels, fallbacks).
- **BE:** `toolSetToDescriptors` (label map + humanized fallback) and
`database-tool.provider` label generation.
